dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Medical Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest. While the petitioner's work in cancer research was acknowledged, they failed to meet the standard set forth in Matter of New York State Dept. of Transportation, specifically by not demonstrating that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker in the field.
